All the News We Can Find on Marriage Equality & LGBT Rights

Seriously?

The latest in our series of the crazy things the anti gay folks are saying and doing around the world.

Gay Pride Support Leads to Super Mice Infestation

In a rather amusing cause-and-effect story out of the UK, anti-gay-rights folks are claiming that the store was infected by super mice because the chain had supported gay pride. Pink News reports:

In July the store pleaded guilty to six food hygiene offences in court, but Christian Voice’s national director Stephen Green attributed it to the management’s support of LGBT rights. Mr Green told PinkNews: “It is symptomatic of the bad management of Tesco. Any company which announces its support for gay pride six weeks before Christmas obviously can’t operate basic pest control.” The giant mouse, which was larger than average because it had been eating protein and leaving pink droppings in food crates, was found in the Covent Garden branch of Tesco, where 55,000 people shop every week.

I didn’t even know super mice existed, but I totally want one.

The Gays Are Attacking Countless Families

So says The Family Research Council’s Senior Vice President Rob Schwarzwalder. Towleroad.com reports:

The claim of injustice is itself unjust. Because people want to do something that does not adversely affect those immediately around them (e.g., neighbors or co-workers) does not mean they should be allowed to do so. Society is organic and, thus, so is harm. Same-sex unions do not threaten any healthy natural marriage but, rather, they threaten the institution of marriage and, thereby, the well-being of countless families.

Well, not attacking, so much as just existing as married couples. Which apparently sends out some sort of vibe into the universe that destroys straight families. Or something.

Civil Unions = Mind Control

Continuing in the vein of the strange supernatural powers of gays and lesbians apparently have, Colorado State Senator Kent Lambert thanks we can also control minds via the new civil unions law. Opposing Views reports:

“There are no waivers or provisions for any contrary thought, whether it’s religion or people’s expression of their own morality,” claimed Lambert. However, the state’s civil union law does not govern “contrary thought,” but it does block discrimination against gay couples. “It completely suppresses basically any ideas. It’s a mind-control experiment by the majority party, the Democrats, here in Colorado to force everybody, including children in schools, everything else, under penalty of law, to believe in homosexual marriage,” warned Lambert.

::: checking the text of the law ::: Ah, yes, here’s what he talking about. “From this day forth, it is legally prohibited for any Coloradan think for himself.” Oh wait, that’s the GOP party platform.

It’s Fun to Attack Transgender Kids

A transgender California teenager has been a target of bullying after she was named her high school’s homecoming queen, and now American Family Association spokesman Bryan Fischer has joined in the backlash against the sixteen-year-old… “He has a mental illness, he thinks he’s a girl and they elected him homecoming queen and the school officials allowed this charade to go on. That violates everything we know about gender, about sex, about genetics, about biology, about human health, about what mental health is, it violates every known standard of decency and normality in America.”

Just lovely. That you love it when these right-wing folks make these big pronouncements on things that they understand absolutely nothing about?

The Aggressive Homosexual Agenda

And Finally, Peter LaBarbera is back, this time chiding Pope Francis for being naive. Towleroad.com reports:

According to LaBarbera, “Satan’s earthly minions” concocted a plan to bring gay men into the priesthood so they can “seduce and molest” boys in order to discredit and weaken the Church’s authority to condemn homosexuality. LaBarbera now fears that the Pope is giving ammunition to “pro-homosexuality and pro-abortion militants” to further their goal of bringing “corruption and destruction to many institutions.”

What a disgusting example of a human being. What kind of person would even think about using children in such a vile and demeaning way to advance one’s political aims?
